Our Complete Land Rover Discovery 5 Engine Repair & Service Range
We cover every engine service the Discovery 5 requires from a single targeted repair through to a full ground-up rebuild or complete engine replacement.
Head Gasket Replacement
Ingenium engine head gasket failure is a fault we see regularly. Coolant disappearing without visible leaks, white smoke on start-up, a persistent sweet smell from the engine bay, or an engine that keeps running hotter than it should these are the signals. Continued driving with a compromised head gasket destroys the engine rapidly. We replace Discovery 5 head gaskets using OEM-grade components, machining the head surface where necessary to ensure a clean, permanent seal.
Timing Chain Replacement
The 3.0 TDV6 fitted to earlier Discovery 5 models carries a well-documented susceptibility to timing chain wear particularly when oil change intervals have been extended. The characteristic rattle on cold start is the warning sign. We replace the complete timing chain system chain, tensioners, guides, and sprockets together as a full kit.
Turbo Replacement
Turbocharger failure is a risk across turbocharged Ingenium and TDV6 engines, particularly when oil quality or change frequency has been neglected. Sluggish power delivery, excessive smoke, or an audible whine are common symptoms. We source quality replacement turbos for all Discovery 5 configurations and fit them to manufacturer specifications, running full post-installation testing before handover.
Timing Belt Replacement
Certain Discovery 5 variants incorporate a timing belt, and this component gives no warning before failure it simply snaps, and the resulting valve damage is instantaneous. We carry timing belt kits for applicable configurations and recommend replacement at or before the manufacturer's stipulated intervals, especially where service history is incomplete.
Engine Rebuild
When a Discovery 5 engine has accumulated significant mileage or suffered wear across multiple components, a full rebuild frequently makes more financial sense than any alternative. We strip the engine entirely, inspect every component against factory tolerances, replace everything that falls short, and rebuild to manufacturer specifications backed by a written warranty.
Engine Repair
Not every Discovery 5 engine fault demands a full rebuild. Our diagnostic process is thorough and precise we identify exactly what is wrong before recommending any course of action. Oil leaks, bearing wear, EGR faults, injector problems, sensor failures, valve damage we handle every level of repair with accuracy and complete honesty.
Engine Replacement
When multiple major components have failed or repair is impractical, a quality replacement engine is the sensible path forward. We supply and fit reconditioned and low-mileage used Discovery 5 engines sourced from trusted UK suppliers, inspected and tested thoroughly before installation.
Engine Swap
Considering a powertrain change on your Discovery 5 whether upgrading from the four-cylinder Ingenium to the 3.0 Si6 petrol, or exploring a different configuration entirely? Our engine swap service manages mounts, ancillaries, wiring integration, ECU mapping, and full post-swap diagnostics.
Engine Health Check
Our engine health check covers compression testing, oil analysis, full diagnostic scanning across all systems, and a thorough visual inspection of the engine bay and ancillaries. You receive a written report with plain-English findings and honest recommendations.

What Discovery 5 Owners Say About Vogue Technics
"My Discovery 5 Sd4 Ingenium had an engine management light that three different garages couldn't diagnose correctly. Vogue Technics found the root cause within a day, explained everything clearly, and had it running properly within the week. Genuinely refreshing to deal with people who actually know the vehicle."
James F., Hertfordshire
"Sent my 3.0 TDV6 down from Manchester after a timing chain failure. It came back rebuilt to an exceptional standard, packaged securely, and arrived ahead of the date I'd been given. Couldn't have asked for more."
David R., Manchester
"I was quoted between £7,000 and £9,500 by three different garages for a Discovery 5 engine replacement. Vogue Technics completed the same job professionally, with a full warranty, for considerably less. I genuinely wish I had contacted them first."
Natalie W., Surrey
